Plus, it can move like a crab. Here's how it fits into GM's future electric vehicle plans.
Hummer is back with a truck that is even bigger and badder than the old gas-fuel iteration, the uber off-roader inspired by the original Army Humvee.
“[Ultium] is the platform that allows us to accommodate the future technology development, reduce costs, and speed up the technology development process,” explained Mei Cai, GM’s director of battery cell systems research in the“It will be the driver for us to expand the EV platform,” she said. “Ultium is the key for our all-electric future.”The 24 battery modules of the Hummer EV Pickup’s Edition 1 configuration weigh more than 2,900 pounds and contribute to a 9,063-lb.
You’d never know the Hummer weighs so much, thanks to its agility and the smooth ride afforded by the truck’s air suspension and off-road balloon tires. With GM’s Super Cruise driver assistance taking over on the highway, the Hummer is even more relaxing to drive. As for parking, well, it is still more than 18 feet long and fills a space from the right-side line to the left one.
Experienced off-roaders know to gently apply the brake with their left foot to control speed so the truck does not come crashing down off the downslope of hills or the back side of rocks and logs. Hummer engineers aimed to provide that for inexperienced drivers too.
